The Brain Prize

Researching the mechanisms of memory has never been more important with rises in dementia and decreases in attention span due to digital dependencies. The Agenda welcomes the first Canadian-based researcher to win the Grete Lundbeck European Brain Research Prize, Graham Collingridge, who led the breakthrough in the science of memory. Collingridge is the chair of the department of physiology at the University of Toronto and a senior investigator at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute at Mount Sinai Hospital.
